Subject: RE: BS: Post Brexit life in the UK
65% of Labour voters voted remain. I call that an overwhelming majority, especially in light of the fact that I've heard things like "the British people have spoken" and "the leave side won convincingly" when they actually won the referendum by less than 52-48 and when only 38% of the electorate voted leave. My transparent and straightforward remark clearly related to an overall percentage all Labour voters and I didn't attempt any kind of regional breakdown. In addition, approximately 88% or more, depending on which survey you read, of Labour Party members voted remain. There is absolutely nothing economical with the truth about any of that, and calling it "a total distortion" is patently ridiculous. You need to learn to be civil.
